Five years probation IS he penalty.
Probably having your probation revoked and a new charge of Coke possession/Use.
The penalty for probation violations are determined by the judge who originally sentenced you to the probation. It is impossible to know what your individual restrictions were.
It depends entirely as to whether you are on misdemeanor probation or felony probation.
yes it is considered a penalty.
When someone refers to a 'stiff penalty' it is just a way of saying that a person will get the maximum punishment that the law allows for that particular crime. Such as armed robbery may carry a penalty of 25 years to life. The stiffest penalty for this crime would be life. The death penalty is definitely the stiffest penalty for murder in the 1st degree. It is the maximum punishment for taking someones life with premeditation or several other factors that decide if a case is elegible for capital punishment.
You penalty can vary depending on the situation and what the Probation Officers recommendation is going to be. Most likely your Probation will be violated and you will have to serve the sentence that you were originally sentenced to serve.
It can be charged as a misdemeanor and the penalty will be a few days in a local jail. If it is charged as a felony, the penalty is up to 5 years in jail. There can also be fines and probation.
The maximum penalty would be governed by the underlying original charge and any sentence that was suspended in lieu of probation.
Probation itself is not a conviction, however if you are on probation it's because you have been convicted of a crime, and have been given probation in lieu of a jail sentence.
No, it is a death penalty case.
after your probation ends
